i think you purchase one on blocknet or something
i'm pretty sure that isalso people might have to donate money to you in order to keep the server up
Anyone can host a dedicated server, paying for it only makes it so you can turn your computer off. Plus it'll probably have better internet.
that sounds nice crown but are you saying I can do it for free?
Creating a Dedicated Server (for Windows)First, make a copy of your Blockland shortcut. Then right click on the new copy of the shortcut and go to Properties. Click the Shortcut tab.The target field will look something like this:Code: [Select]"C:\Program Files (x86)\Blockland\BlocklandLauncher.exe"To make this launch a dedicated server, add the -dedicated parameter to the end. It should now look like this:Code: [Select]"C:\Program Files (x86)\Blockland\BlocklandLauncher.exe" -dedicatedYou can now launch the server using that shortcut, but I recommend that you read below first.(Optional) If you wish to start a specific game mode, add the -gamemode Name_of_GameMode parameter to the end of the target. If you don't do this, the server will default to the standard/custom mode. (which allows you to set your own add-ons and customize everything)(Optional, but recommended) Set your dedicated server to use its own directory. (if you don't do this, it will use your current BL directory) Add this parameter to the end of your shortcut's target: -profilePath "C:\path\to\server folder"Setting Up Your ServerBefore you perform these steps, you should start your server at least once and then close it - doing so will create the pref files for you to edit. Note, these steps should be performed while the server is closed.To change server settings, open the file called "prefs.cs" in the "config/server" folder.To change which add-ons are enabled, open the file called "ADD_ON_LIST.cs" in the "config/server" folder. A 1 next to an add-on indicates it is enabled while a -1 indicates it is disabled.To install new add-ons, simply place them in the add-ons folder.Shutting Down Your ServerThis might seem trivial, but most people don't know how to do this properly.To shut down your server, enter quit(); in the server console.
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Blockland\BlocklandLauncher.exe"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Blockland\BlocklandLauncher.exe" -dedicated
You can also put your server on another computer you have.I put mine on a laptop and it runs fine.You don't need to buy dedicated hosting.
Joe I think I can do that?!
then go for it, it wouldn't be a dedicated server, but it would be a normal server hosted with you (probably) afkyou could still play on other servers and/or join from the other computer
well I Think because when my Mac falls a sleep or anything it makes the sever Shut down
